//Amendment 19//


 * "Women, we might as well be dogs baying at the moon as petitioners without the right to vote"

-Susan B. Anthony**


 * Amendment 19 is about womens suffrage
 * Suffrage means the right to vote
 * The ammendment allows women to vote, buy land, and have the right to be a citizen.
 * As a citizen of the United States we have rights.
 * Back in the day women were not allowed to vote due to certain regulations
 * The only people that could vote were men, over 21, white, and have a certain amount of money.
 * Women eventually realized that they are the same as the men and they deserve a say in things.
 * They protested and finally won giving them many rights that we still have today.
 * Women have gone to great lengths to make sure that they have rights and have gone to great lengths to get there. I think that in the future women will still give their full effort and go even further, perhaps become President.

This flag is supposed to represent equal rights and freedom for all. Yet at one time women did not have any of these rights. Until they patitioned and got what they wanted.

Hilary Clinton is now running to be the first women President. She is not only resresenting herself, but all women who never got the chance to.

I think that this picture says it all.

Protesting was very common among women. They are fighting for what they believe in and that is all there is to it.

This was a pettition among the women that as you can see, many people signed. The women want to be equal and have the same rights as men.

All women, as you can probably guess, wanted to overcome this detail of history. They wanted it to be "ONE PERSON SNCC ONE VOTE" They fought tooth and nail to get there, and their never going back.

This is a Political cartoon about how women want all these rights, and yet the congress just stares at them.

This is where you go to vote. You enter your ballot and you cast your vote.

This is a Proclamation that states, women have the right to vote. And buy land and houses.

Here are some articles we found on Womens Suffrage:
[|Kristin's Article] This article is about Eleanor Roosevelt and her strides in life. She was born into a very sad family where her father wasalcaholic and her mother died when she was young. She still tried her hardest at boarding school and marriend well, her husband later became president and she the first lady. She continued to help women everywhere by pettitioning. She was a very good women who helped us in the long run.... I bet that if she was alive today, she would be the first woman President [|This is Brennan's article] This article is about the people fighting for women's rights in Iraq. It shows us how the women mut've fought back then for their rights. It also shows that it was definitly righteous to make the 19th amendment and allow women to have the same right as men. It definitly tell us some of the problem sthat we might have been having today if we didn't create the 19th amendment. I think that this article brings up many important oints. It made me think of what could be happening in America right now if we hadnt proposed the 19th amendment. It made me think of how important my amendment is to daily life everyday.

[|This is the article that Sarah picked out] This article is about women who are racist become leaders of the nation.

[|Amendment rap] We found this on teachertube.com and we thought that it really showed what all of the amendments are. so i thought i would put it on here.

The Amendments were and still are a way of giving people rights and responsebilities. The 19th amendment gives women the right to vote and buy and sell land, they can do almost anything that men can.
